18-43-10_2v2_SUPExiLe_SUPRezno_crazy_BSToNED.zip Just too clunky to micro. |
|
i am in favor of this change |
|
Ok. I tried to come up with a rationale and appended it in the opening post. Please check if it makes sense. |
|
That's pretty accurate |
|
So merge this? |
|
I'd like another party to approve. It's easily reverted anyway if OP, or fine tuned with pricing. |
|
Yep, Makes sense |
|
Documentation added. Tank General is overpowered now. |

This change increases the China Emperor speed by 25% and upgraded speed by 16%. The regular China Overlord already has the same setup.
Rationale
The tanks of the Tank General are stronger and cheaper than those of other China factions, but come at the expense of considerably more expensive infantry and aircraft, and the absence of artillery ground units. Therefore it relies on its tanks as its primary source of attacking firepower. The Emperor Tank is generally not a favourite pick due its inability to break defensive lines in a limely manner. The opposition has ample time to react to the Emperor advances - can prepare aircraft, artillery units, rocket men, Demo bikes, mass tanks, mass humvees or a Jarmen Kell to stop it from advancing. The loss of an Emperor Tank (1900) with the Gattling upgrade (+1200) is a significant investment and a huge loss when taken out or taken over (!) by the opposition. It is common to see Tank General mass producing Battlemaster Tanks, Gattling Tanks and ECM Tanks instead.
The Battlemaster Tank already enjoyed a speed buff with change #1815. And the Emperor Tank enjoyed a Subliminal bonus buff with change #236. With this change the Emperor will enjoy a speed buff on top, elevating its usefulness further and giving Tank General the powerful tanks it deserves and needs.
